For Sharp’s domestic carrier partners, solar power is all the rage right now, and now NTT DoCoMo is hopping up on the exceptionally eco-friendly bandwagon with the SH-08A. Bearing the same SOLAR HYBRID badging as its sister device on SoftBank, the 936SH, the SH-08A flip features IPX5 / IPX7 compliance for splashes and submersion up to a meter, an 8 megapixel camera, 7.2Mbps HSDPA, and — of course — a wide VGA display. You’ll get one minute of talk time for every 10 minutes of time spent baking in the sun, which certainly isn’t bad when you’re in a pinch and there’s not a wall outlet for miles. The SH-08A will go on display at Wireless Japan this month with sales following on in September.
